Director's Message

Greetings Families,  
 
Whether you stayed close to home or traveled far away during summer adventures, you have been missed and we can't wait to welcome you and your students back for another year at STEM school!  A very special welcome to those who are new this year - we are so glad you are here!  
 
Dress for outdoor weather. 
Wear closed-toe, well fitting shoes that allow for students to run, jump and hike outdoors. 
Dress in layers.  It can be cool in the mornings and warm afternoons.  
Please make sure all loose items are labeled with your student's name.  
 
Pack a healthy snack & lunch.
Nourishing our bodies for sustained energy all day long is vital, and attached is our updated policy and ideas for what to bring.  
If you have any questions or are looking for additional ideas, please reach out to Julie at [email protected]
 
Monitor for symptoms and if your student is sick, please keep them home.  
As a school community we take care of one another and ourselves and therefore if children are showing signs of illness, please keep them home for monitoring.  
You can find our full health and wellness policy here, and the CDC isolation recommendations here, which we will follow for covid positive cases.   
 
Warmest regards & on behalf of the entire CRSS team, 
 
Julie Cohrs 
Interim School Director
